bad posts

Lately when I am reading my private messages there is a symbol in the right upper corner and it is saying that this is a bad post and do you want to report abuse or something to that effect. What does this mean? Is it because the person sending you a message was somehow inappropriate or what? I do not see how my prayer request was inappropriate. Is it the moderator maybe giving bad advice?

That symbol is on every single thread on the system posted by non admins, and also in pm's etc.
What it is there for is for you to be able to report an inappropriate post to the admins. It does not mean that the post is allready bad, it's just there as a "rapid response" system for the admins to remove posts that are inappropriate.
Thanks for the quesiton: it was a really good one to ask.
